Outdoor Discoveries has been providing roping training since 2002.

We have also provided flat water and white water canoeing guide courses as well as white water rescue training with Paddle Australia since 2017.

We currently run a 7-day Abseiling and Top Rope Climbing Guide Course (Single Pitch - Natural Surfaces), a 3-Day Flat Water Guide Course (Canoe) and a 3-Day White Water Guide Course (Canoe).

History

In 1991 the Abseiling Assessment Panel was formed in WA to meet the concerns in the outdoor industry with the standard of abseiling instructors in the state.  An Abseiling Instructor Course was set up and Instructor's In Charge were selected.  The course has been running since this time under the auspices of a number of organisations such a TAFE, Edith Cowan University and the Department of Sport and Recreation.
